Steve,
I am not sure if this feature was always available on the KPA100 or when
it was included (Don, W3FPR may know) but when the power is set above
20W, pressing the TUNE button will reduce the power to 20W until the
operation is terminated. If you hold and press both the TUNE and DISPLAY
buttons, the KPA100 will output the power requested with the power
control pot.

Subject [Elecraft] K2 TUNE power reduction without ATU installed .
I've just recently bought a used K2 /100 for use at field days with my local
club ( to save my own K2 from getting hammered too much ! ) . I'd like to use
it with a remote ATU . The output of the K2/100 is reduced to 20 W with an
Elecraft ATU installed and the TUNE button pressed .... is it possible to fool
the K2/100 into doing that when no ATU is installed ?
The reason for trying to implement this is so that nobody has to remember to
reduce the power level when changing bands and then trying to tune the ATU at
100 W .... at 4 a.m. it is bound to happen sooner or later !
